Teva, Granules and Heritage metformin

Yes — the Teva, Granules and Heritage metformin settlement is a real claims process that SettleSignal tracks from its official source. It is administered by A.B. Data, Ltd. under case 20-cv-02334-MCA-MAH in U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. File only through the official settlement website (inremetforminsettlement.com); a genuine settlement administrator never charges a fee to file. SettleSignal last checked this record against the official source on June 13, 2026. Always confirm the current details on the official site before filing.

You may be included if you paid any amount of money for a metformin-containing drug intended for personal or household use that was manufactured, distributed, or sold by Teva, Granules, or Heritage from 2015-07-20 through 2020-06-02; third-party payors are included if they paid or reimbursed some or all of the purchase price. Exclusions include Settling Defendants and affiliates, certain governmental entities, resale purchasers, direct purchasers from Settling Defendants or affiliates, fully insured health plans, pharmaceutical benefit managers, the judges and immediate families, and anyone who properly excludes themselves.

$5.55 million total settlement ($3 million from Teva; $2.55 million from Granules and Heritage). Individual payout amounts unknown at this time; distributions will be pro-rata after deduction of taxes, administrative costs, legal fees, and court-approved awards. The exact amount you may receive is decided by the settlement administrator based on your valid claim and is not guaranteed; a total settlement-fund figure is shared among all eligible claimants, not paid to each person.

The claim deadline is July 10, 2026. Confirm the current deadline on the official settlement source before filing.

Proof requirement: Optional. The settlement administrator determines what documentation, if any, is required.

The lawsuit claims these generic metformin drugs were contaminated with NDMA (N-nitrosodimethylamine) and didn't meet FDA standards, even though they were marketed as equivalent to brand-name Glucophage. The companies deny wrongdoing, and no court has ruled against them — the settlement is a compromise to avoid a trial.

No. You can file without any documentation. If you have pharmacy receipts, insurance statements, or prescription records, you can include them, and they may affect how your claim is calculated.

July 10, 2026. Claims submitted after that date won't be accepted.

That's not known yet. Your payment depends on how much metformin you purchased and how many valid claims are submitted in total. The money is divided proportionally after costs are deducted from the $5.55 million fund.

No. This settlement only covers economic losses — meaning money you paid for drugs that allegedly didn't meet safety standards. Personal injury and wrongful death claims are not part of this case.
